Hell, that one was so good it scared me!

Listen, I want to lower expectations a bit, remember I am not 40 Years old anymore or 50or60 but in a Week 70. I will do my best but please keep this in mind. You all are raising the bar so high that even if I was still 40 I am not sure I could measure up. One other note, you will hear many of the people you know because this is a small field, only so many good people in it.

Art

I can only speak for myself Art but I've gotten more capable, witty, handsome, and modest with age. :

I don't think the bar is being raised Art, we're just expressing love and appreciation for the work you have already done. What comes next is an extra treat that adds to the body of work you have given us over the years.

You hold that bar as high as you damn well want, Art....I'm a jumpin.

Oh dear. Really? Did Peter Levenda just call the Dalai Lama a Nazi? Like...really?

I remember you saying something similar 2 years ago, and you knocked Dark Matter out of the park.

Art, we all heard you less than two years ago with DM. Despite its short run, it was freaking awesome. One of the most entertaining episodes was the Hoagland interview, even though we've all heard Hoagland many times before. It'll be fine. And besides, you could interview a talking parrot for three hours and it would be more interesting than C2C is these days.

Agreed! I thought the Dr. Steven Greer episode was one of if not the best UFO shows ever! He ran down an excellent summary and added a few incidents I had not heard of! The large craft over Alaska being one example.

Uh. If you want to call it that.

Check out his twitter.

He's out getting his twice a year circumcision. "Just a little off the top, doc."

Been with you from the beginning old friend. One show or a hundred, we will take what we can have and I for one, though I am sure many more, will enjoy the ride and the memories old and new. Besides Art your just 50 with 20 years experience. Do what you can.

Richard Howard · June 11, 2015, 05:03:41 PM

I'm sorry. I don't know why I thought it would be funny. Looking at it now it's snide. I apologize.

It's to bad about XM, I would love to have them now as long as they do not stream me but I am sure they hate my guts. I don't hate them at all, I just tried to reason with them but it was not to be. I am a very competitive person and they only offered a slim market.

Art just do what you do. I can't imagine you not measuring up to our expectations. By the sure fact that you are coming back at age 70 means you already win at radio broadcasting.

Haha! They probably hate themselves for letting you get away, is my guess.

Art, I'm sure your mind is just fine.
Guests, like the fellow from the other night, on Russia, could be interesting if they had an alert and engaged person asking questions. People miss YOU. You are intellectually curious and manage to pull interest out of boring topics. Don't question your abilities. Seventy is the new forty.
We just hope that your back holds out and you don't get bored with us.

Remember Art, 70 is the new 48. Live long and prosper.
As you can see in my avatar, I'm as old as I feel.

Amazing. Great job Jaz!

The new shows will be much shorter than the shows you did years ago., so that will likely be easier on your back.
I bet 100 bell gabbers would be crawling all over each other to volunteer to walk on your back during the commercial breaks.

You don't look THAT old. Just a tad bit crooked.

MV should be finished with the lawn work by showtime. I'm sure he won't mind adding it to the list.

HGH. Problem solved, or so I recall being told.

I can't wait for the new show, the main current offering and most of the others (aside from a few) are so bad that Art could simply do some radio checks and it would be more interesting.
